Majority of last year's graduates in employment despite uncertain jobs market, survey shows

Employment was highest amongst those graduating from education courses, at 91.6%, and lowest among arts and humanities graduates, at 63.1%.

Most 2024 graduates are in employment or further study despite an uncertain jobs market due to global uncertainty and the onset of artificial intelligence (AI).

The Higher Education Authority (HEA) has published its graduate outcomes for 2024, surveying more than 71,000 graduates earlier this year.
